A copy pool works differently than a primary pool in this regard. In a primary pool, if the volume is "filling" it will not show up in reclamation queries, in a copy pool it will. However you have to remember that in reclamation it's not the percent used, or valid that matters it's the percent re

Set the reclamation higher, around 60 or so. Setting it that far down will make reclamation run forever, and it will have a hard time finishing in a day. Also check your volume reuse setting in the offsite copy storage pool. If this is set to say 5 days they will not be flagged vault retrieve u

TSM uses a copypool to do this. You can then eject the copypool tapes, mark them as not available, and keep them offsite. You will run reclaimation of both the onsite tapepool and offsite copypool separately, so do not expect there to be a 1 to 1 correlation of offsite to onsite tapes. Best of l
